Quote: Mrs.little saw right away that the infant clothes she had provided

were unsuitable,and made him a fine blue worsted suit with patch pockets

in which he could keep his handkerchief,his money,and his keys.

Reaction: I feel that Mrs.Little cares about Stuart a lot and hopes he has the

best time living with them.She wants Stuart to see that even though he's a mouse

he still has the same abilities as humans.To show that she cares about Stuart she has

made him a nice worsted suit so he can have warmth and so Stuart can have an easier life

with handy pockets for his useful and or not useful materials.

Quote:"I'm not tall enough to be noticed ,"thought Stuart,"yet I'm

tall enough to want to go to Seventy-second street."

Reaction: I feel that Stuart had been insulted by his height,so then

he got an idea to go to Seventy-second street to get some kind of help

and make that idea happen.Stuart probably wanted people to respect him

and judge him by his character and not by his height or what he looks like.

Stuart needed the help from his very important friends.

Quote:"My name is Margalo,"said the bird,softly,in a musical voice."I come from

fields once tall with wheat,from pastures deep in fern and thistle;I come from vales

of meadowsweet,and I love to whistle."Stuart sat bolt upright in bed."Say that again!"

he said.

Reaction: I feel that Stuart enjoyed the song and was inspired by Margalo's voice.

I think he liked it so much he wanted her to sing it again,but she refused because her

throat was sore and she hasn't had her temperature taken so Stuart helped her by lending

Margalo his thermometer to take her temperature just to be on the safe side so she won't get

sick and to make sure she isn't sick.Stuart had then lend her his supply of Kleenex and his nose

drops when they had found out that Margalo does have a cold.

Quote:"Stuart,I hope this will be a lesson to you:never push a button on

an automobile unless you know what you are doing."

Reaction: I feel that Dr.Carey was trying to get Stuart to get used to the car

and to make sure that he gets to practice making the car invisible so he can

get the hang of it and he won't make a mistake,but that happened right when Stuart

had pressed a button when the car was invisible and he pressed the wrong one and it

went out of control.Then Stuart had been informed about the safety on pressing buttons

when either not or instructed to do so.

Quote:"There's nothing like a long, cool drink in the heat of the day,when

your traveling."

Reaction: I feel like Stuart had been exhausted from a long time of searching

for Margalo after she had disappeared and he just wanted to relax and have a

cold drink and then start an his long journey of finding Margalo.He and a store-

keeper were having a discussion about Margalo and if Stuart was going really far

or not.After their talk Stuart had continued his long journey to find Margalo.
